C Rodney Hudson might play in final game of season

Kliff Kingsbury ruled out Rodney Hudson for this week but opened the door for a return in the season finale.

Arizona Cardinals center Rodney Hudson is on injured reserve and the hope is that he could return this season from his knee injury. With only two games left in the season, it isn’t expected to happen this week.

Cardinals coach Kliff Kingsbury told reporters Monday that “it doesn’t look good this week,” for Hudson’s return.

Kingsbury indicated that potentially Hudson could return for the team’s final game of the year against the San Francisco 49ers.

“Maybe the last one, but he just hasn’t progressed as we would’ve hoped,” he said.

Hudson has played in only four games this season.

He contemplated retirement last offseason, returned for training camp and has been dealing with a knee issue since his return.

If he can get one game it, it would likely be the final one of his career.
